FIRST LISTEN: Skrillex’s Remix of “The Island, Pt 1” by Pendulum

With the news of Pendulum’s new remix album unveiled, and the release date fast approaching (June 29), fans have been scouring the internet for clips of the tracks – if in fact they’ve been played out. It didn’t take long before the clip below surfaced, showing Ekali during a recent show in Los Angeles playing out an unknown remix of Pendulum’s “The Island, Pt 1” … as it turns out, we now know that remix belongs to Skrillex.

It’s not a far reach to believe that Ekali had the remix, since he’s also an OWSLA artist. As for the remix itself, if you were hoping for Skrillex-style dubstep, prepare to be disappointed. That being said, it’s still a high quality interpretation of the classic track filled with anthemic synths and Rob’s singular vocals.
